Thomas Dwaine "Tom" Arnold (born March 6, 1959) is an American actor and comedian. He has appeared in many films, perhaps most notably True Lies (1994). He was the host of The Best Damn Sports Show Period for four years.
Arnold was born in Ottumwa, Iowa, the son of Linda Kay Graham (née Collier) and Jack Arnold. He has six siblings: Lori, Johnny, Scott, Chris, Marla, and Mark. Arnold attended Ottumwa High School, Indian Hills Community College and the University of Iowa and began doing stand-up comedy when he was 23.
In the early 1980s, Arnold had a prop-based comedy routine called "Tom Arnold and the Goldfish Review." Arnold was brought in by Barr as a writer for the television sitcom Roseanne. He married the show's star, Roseanne Barr, in 1990, after she divorced her first husband. Arnold appeared occasionally on the show as the character "Arnie Thomas" (a play on his name). The couple's marriage attracted media and especially tabloid attention due to their sometimes outrageous behavior. In 1992, Arnold starred in his own sitcom, The Jackie Thomas Show. Airing after Roseanne on ABC, the show lasted 18 episodes.

Plot: Stan Ross was a baseball superstar who turned his back on the game years ago when he finally hit 3,000 hits. Years later, he's now a successful, self-made entrepreneur whose many businesses revolve around his title: Mr. 3000.

But things have changed with age, and as Stan finds out, it's not too easy to get back into the game when he hasn't played for years, and he's nearing 50.

Plot: Pretty blond Clara Arnold works for a newspaper in picturesque Lüneburg, just outside Hamburg in northern Germany. Being single, she firmly believes that some day she will meet the man of her dreams. She shares her flat with her rather chaotic sister Meike, chronically broke, who is trying to fix her up with Leonard, a good-looking and successful young man, who has been pursuing Clara for quite some time. But then Clara picks up the wrong pictures at the photo shop and falls head over heels in love with the handsome stranger on the pictures. It is Ben Ivaldi, a furniture designer - but it takes Clara some time and several approaches to get to know him. Further complications arise when Clara's boss, a rather unpleasant lady from the big city, also falls for Ben, and Ben's former girlfriend Lena, who dumped him for a job in Italy, returns to claim him back.
